Distributor Description
Sourced from 2.1ha of different parcels (mainly the crus of Cerrati and Meriame) all located in the village of Serralunga d'Alba, at altitudes of 360-400m above sea level; the vineyards have south-east and west exposures, and are composed mostly of calcareous and tufaceous soil.
The grapes were destemmed and crushed; fermentation occurred spontaneously in cement vats, with maceration lasting 20 days with pumpovers. After malolactic, the wine was racked into used Slavonian oak botti of 3000-3600L and aged for 30 months. Bottled unfined/unfiltered and bottle aged for 6 months before release.
"The 2015 Barolo del Comune di Serralunga d'Alba is a very delicious entry-level Barolo from Schiavenza. Macerated dark cherry, sweet tobacco, licorice, menthol, and spice are all woven together in this pliant, mid-weight, super-expressive Barolo from Schiavenza. All the elements are impeccably balanced." - Antonio Galloni
"A pure, elegant version, this red exudes strawberry, cherry rose, mineral and tobacco flavors. It's sleek and intense, with a firm base of tannins lining the finish. Best from 2024 through 2043. 1,040 cases made, 316 cases imported"
